Nude Beaches, Take Your Clothes Off!

The first thing you might see on nude
beaches --Attention: Beyond This Point You May Encounter Nude Bathers—lets you
know you are about to embark on an adventure quite unlike any other you’ve ever
experienced.You may be one of those
ready to take your clothes off immediately to enjoy the warmth of the welcoming
sun, or you may opt to try nudism in a more gradual way, as do some women, for
example, who will go topless but leave the rest of their swim suit on.

These beaches are gaining in popularity
around the world, with no less a travel expert than Forbes issuing a list of
top clothing optional beaches. Here you will find people
from every walk of life, who revel in being one with the natural world.
Europeans are far more comfortable with nudism than Americans, but then they
also take a lot more vacation time than in the USA, where the typical time off is two
weeks.

How
to Behave on a Nude
Beach

Nudists, or naturists as they are sometimes
called, enjoy nudity simply for the sake of being free from constricting
clothing. They are not there to show off
their physique, or to be stared at, but to practice a lifestyle which enjoys
increasing popularity the world over.
Voyeurs beware: there is an implicit code of ethics among naturists to
treat everyone, regardless of age, sex, or body shape, with human dignity. If
you go to ogle, you will most likely be asked to leave the beach. And if you
choose this part of the shore, it is expected you will remove at least a
portion of your clothes. In addition, nude beach etiquette frowns upon displays
of sexuality.

To
most people’s way of thinking, however, if you go to a beach designated as
clothing optional, you are probably planning at some point to try nudism to one
degree or another. Otherwise, why not just go to a regular beach? Those who go
to nudist beaches for voyeuristic thrills will soon tire of looking, or be
asked to leave for ogling. In fact, the slogan of the International Naturist
Federation is “nude, not lewd.”

But there are areas already legally
considered to be safe for topless and nude activity. In addition to what was
once an annual list of top topless beaches compiled by Forbes, another good
reference is Ranker List which is kept up to date and focuses on naturist and clothing optional locations. There are links to pics, videos and other resources. NudistBeaches.info also offers info about nude beaches around the
world. The site map features red dots which, when clicked on, reveal more
information about the location.
